So, it's been a while since I've written an article on here, and even longer since I've written a list, so I decided to do my favorite soundtracks! This was actually really hard to do, since I really like all the soundtracks, but I'm fairly sure of most of my placements. Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy!
12. Cinderella
Favorite Song: Sing Sweet Nightengale
Least Favorite Song: Work Song
Sadly, one of the reasons I'm not a big fan of the movie is that the soundtrack is, for me at least, about as riveting as a bag of doorknobs. It just doesn't interest me and it isn't memorable at all, not to mention that I dislike the sexism of the 'Work Song'. I do quite like 'Sing Sweet Nightengale', but the other songs are just kind of meh.
11. Mulan
Favorite Song: I'll Make a Man Out of You
Least Favorite Song: A Girl Worth Fighting For
This movie is more action than music, with only four songs, and only two of the songs are all that good, but I do really like the score. It's so dramatic! However, it's small amount of songs lands it in a low place in my list.
10. Aladdin
Favorite Song: Arabian Nights
Least Favorite Song: A Whole New World
This soundtrack is so fun to listen to! One thing about this Aladdin's music is that while a lot of the Disney soundtracks have one of two bad songs, and some great songs, but Aladdin's soundtrack has songs that are consistently good. Good, but not great. So, Aladdin is in the bottom three, although I really do like it.
9. The Little Mermaid
Favorite Song: Kiss The Girl
Least Favorite Song: Daughters of Triton
One of the things I really like about The Little Mermaid is it's soundtrack. The score and the songs both fit the story the movie is trying to tell perfectly,
8. Sleeping Beauty
Favorite Song: Once Upon A Dream
Least Favorite Song: Skumps
The score, the score, the score! Like Mulan's soundtrack, this one only has two good memorable songs, but they're both very, very good songs, and the score for this movie is just perfect.
7. Pocahontas
Favorite Song: Just Around the Riverbend
Least Favorite Song: Listen To Your Heart
To be honest I find the score for this movie to be a bit overrated, as I don't think it's really as good as people make it out to be. However, it's still good, and the songs are good as well, and I especially love songs sung by Pocahontas and the villain songs.
6. Tangled
Favorite Song: Mother Knows Best
Least Favorite Song: When Will My Life Begin
I used to really dislike this soundtrack, but now I'm not really sure why I disliked it so much. It's catchy, it's sensuous, and although it's far from being the best soundtrack ever, it's still really good. And I love both of Gothel's songs.
5. Frozen
Favorite Song: For the First Time in Forever (Reprise)
Least Favorite Song: In Summer
Since the initial hype over Frozen's release passed, the movie and it's entities have all moved down on my list. But although this soundtrack has moved down on my list, I still really love it, although not much of Fanpop seems to be fond of it. It just has that musical feel, and I really love musicals.
4. Beauty and the Beast
Favorite Song: Belle
Least Favorite Song: The Mob Song
I love all my top four so much they're basically tied, but sadly, something has to go fourth. But I really love this soundtrack, the score and songs both. It's equal parts humor, romance and drama, and is just so polished, unique and elegant sounding! If they included some of the songs from the stage musical in the movie it'd be like first on my list, but I still love it as it is.
3. Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
Favorite Song: With a Smile and a Song
Least Favorite Song: The Silly Song
I used to just think this soundtrack was 'meh', but I was so, so wrong. It's silly and fun, but still has a romance and a beauty and a timeless fairytale feel. I also really love the score, and overall this soundtrack is just lovely and really, super under-appreciated.
2. Brave
Favorite Song: Noble Maiden Fair
Least Favorite Song: Learn Me Right
Another under-appreciated soundtrack, a lot of people seem to forget that Brave had songs other than 'Touch The Sky', and that's really too bad, because the other three songs, and the score of Brave are amazing. The soundtrack is dramatic yet also quite unique, and not quite like anything seen in a Disney soundtrack before. I wish more people saw how great this soundtrack is, because from what I've seen it's only me and dclairmont who love it.
1. The Princess and the Frog
Favorite Song: Almost There
Least Favorite Song: Down In New Orleans (Finale)
Another thing of TPatF is high on my list on, but I'm really not being biased. I just love this soundtrack. Not many people seem to, and I can see why, since it's kind of jazz-inspired, and jazz is not a very popular genre. However, I love jazz, and I love this soundtrack. The score is splendid, and it almost hurt for me to choose a favorite and least favorite song, since I love all the songs on this soundtrack so much. So, I think this soundtrack is deserving of first place, since I love it so dearly.

Well, there's my list! I hope you guys enjoyed the article, even if you didn't agree with all my placements. It was actually a really fun one to write, I'm glad I finally wrote something and started participating on here.
